Title: Isle of Arran sunrise
Post by: Vieri Bottazzini on October 07, 2019, 05:07:15 pm: I call the Isle of Arran's landscapes home. They are always familiar to me, and always new. They never disappoint, never let me down. Sure, sometimes the weather doesn't cooperate - but that's normal, and it doesn't matter: photographing the sun rising over what looks like a sculptor's work, is simply priceless :) 1.4 second exposure with my Hasselblad X1D, Hasselblad XCD 21mm and Formatt-Hitech Firecrest Ultra filters.

Thank you for viewing, best regards

I used a Grad ND and a ND filter. 1 sec was chosen exactly not to get sharper waves, but to smoothen them out a bit instead. Best regards,
